Australia wins Sydney SailGP

The first leg of the SailGP series was witnessed by more than 20,000 people who took to the water on our spectacular harbour, providing the perfect amphitheatre for the season kick off. Tom Slingsby led the Australian team to victory, heading the leaderboard as the fleet moves to San Francisco for the second leg.

Two intense days of racing saw six national teams do battle in the world’s most technologically advanced catamarans, competing to get the first points on the leaderboard and closer to the $1 million Season 1 prize.

The Committee wishes to thank Squadron Members for supporting our Club's initiative to hold this event. They appreciate that holding events such as these can be very disruptive to your use of Club facilities and therefore thank you for your forbearance, leading up to and during the event. They hope you enjoyed the racing.
